I should mention that Wednesday was particularly tough because my gal went to lunch with her mother and sister while I was at work. And guess what she did!!?!??! Went hunting without me!!! Even teased me with texts and images!!! At least she felt bad enough about and when she couldn't find any mibs, gifted me with 4 new pet frogs! 🐸 I suppose I should mention, she suffers too, but she's not a marbleaholic. She's a fishaholic. I'd say she satisfied her craving Wednesday 😬

Feed me more!

Here it is, 4am CST. I'm awake. Why? Because a 3 town, 2 state road trip is planned. A trip that doesn't begin for many hours yet. Why? Because I'm still sick. I was treated for being a footballcardaholic. I did get some help for my agatetism, though as its warmed up outside I start having fits every time I'm near any kind of river rock landscaping or rock quarry. But this? Having become a marbleaholic? Man, it's beginning to throttle me worse than Homer Simpson does Bart! I remember once telling Ron in conversation after I first joined here that I didn't really travel that often. Granted I don't go very far but I am starting to feel like a fibber by saying that because it's become almost every week! 🤥 AND I LIKE IT. Funday Friday, Hello there 👋

That's a pretty cool marble!

I saw the video...it worked for me, Android phone

My $14 score from a random container I found last weekend. Nothing to really holler about but still liked what I got for the most part 😊 Also just wanted to chip in on the score thread 🎉

Back when I had a desktop I used to get my spyware/malware antivirus tools from Kim Komondo's (think I spelled her name right) website or off of CNET. It was all free downloads. I've used Avast and a few others and they worked very well. Of course, I think you could pay too upgrade them. The free basic versions, never had a problem. Haven't looked for a long time, not sure what is free or not anymore. Just go with my phone now and do my best to keep it clean 👍

Odd Pelt? Or just odd? The #5 is just wild too see on a marble. Took a pic with a few of his friends too 😁

I did inquire about it's history; when it was made, who made it, what it represented, etc.; all she could say was that it was her mother in laws. It's definitely got some age.

Picked this up at a garage sale today for $1.

My gals cabinet is getting new additions lately also. She added more shoes and animals, and vintage rings in recent weeks.

Progress on the cabinet 😊 kinda getting things in place...top shelf decided to do a little of everything of the ones I liked. 2nd shelf keeping it in the glassware/agate/fossil category. Such fun, and as expected eyeing another corner display case 😁

Thanks Ric. I should have guessed Alley based on others I have with similar patterns, but the color had me thinking about rocks 🤪

Good to meet you, Rick. William (Bill) here...joined in late March myself. Lifelong collector in various fields from football cards, antiques this and that. Began rockhounding for agates not too many years ago and transitioned too marbles late last year. Quite the challenging hobby but loving it. Once again, great to have your acquaintance and a big "welcome back home " 😊

Actually wondering now if I have any MK in this wide variety I have...

Older gentleman asking only $14, so I said sure!

Not much of a size difference, all 3 are so similar.

In total, was probably around 250 marbles in a container, mostly rainbos; along with different varieties of corks and swirls. There's more I'm not too sure on I'll probably post sometime. Got the clearies and cats separated and have this yet too sort...

Other varieties besides the ones above that came with the mix I picked up today

Thanks for the input folks....picked up a batch today and running across some I didn't recognize from previous purchases. Thanks!

Unlike other clearies, this one is really cloudy throughout. Just thought it was different?

Thoughts? The green one is 0.45 and the pearly opaque is 0.49...

1st marble is 0.55 (1st 4 pics), 2nd marble is 0.61 (last 4 pics)
